From qualified institutional buyers (QIBs) to non-institutional investors (NIIs) and retail investors, everyone has an eye out for IPOs. IPOs offer investors an opportunity to buy a newly listed company's share at a reasonable price and make handsome returns. Read on to know more about IPOs, their types, and how to invest in them.
IPO stands for initial public offering. It is the procedure through which private unlisted companies raise capital in the stock market as listed companies. An unlisted company can float an IPO and raise funds by offering its shares in the primary market.
An IPO can be seen as an opportunity for investors to invest in a company at its nascent stage and earn high returns over the long term. However, investing in the IPO does not necessitate returns every time.
